1 Easy (& Essential) Tip to Sound More American | Sound Like a Native Speaker

Is your goal to sound like an American when speaking English?

If so, then you will love today's video, since it's really essential in mastering the American English accent.

There are 10 examples provided, and an exercise at the end so that you can repeat out loud with me:)

I strongly recommend slowing down the Youtube playback speed during the exercise to give your auditory perceptual system an advantage, since the timing for these is critical if you want to sound natural.

I wish you the very best, I hope that you're all healthy and well!

Hi, Victoria! I hope you're healthy and well too. It's a difficult time for The US and Canada, as I hear in the news.
I focus on understanding language details, for now. To sound like American it's still a long way. The tongue would get tangled up

if I spoke like that. But with time, with your help, it may succeed. Many thanks for your lesson.

hi victoria hope you're doing great , in stress sentence do we stress the content words at different levels i mean do we stress for example a verb more than a noun ?or it depends on the meaning we want to convey

So how would you rank the following in order of importance (for developing a native-like accent): correct vowel & consonant sounds, use of contractions/reductions, word stress & natural intonation patterns?? I’m curious if they’re all equally important or if some outweigh the others 🤓

Hi, hope you're doing well. Well i'm familiar with this kind of stuff but what i need more help with are the things such as ''how'd'' like how'd it go or how'd that happen or ''it'd'' it'd be better or ''i'd'' and ''that'd''. When ever i see that ''D'' in the end of a word, sometimes i'll need some time to see what it means, is it ''had'' or ''would'' or ''did''😃 and in some cases i even need help with the pronunciation. Anyway thank you for your time and effort. 🙂
